lyrics

One dark night, after a brutal fight,
Millie chased away Pinky from her doll’s house
‘I will drown, into a grieving clown
Life is cruel, I’m falling down in the pool’

Yellow dress, floating in blue water
Two-headed beast, open jaws, right under
She woke up, lone in a hospital
Nurse and clown both ‘round her bed, ‘where’s my doll ?’

In the house, nearby the closed fairground
Willie’s yelling, giving birth to his child
While Millie’s trying to help Willie
Pinky stands back, mesmerized, frozen eyes

Three women, lone in a dark wild night,
Had the most wonderful dream : he will die
Thus, at dawn, her body shook and cooled
Summer bloomed, her man was shot, in the pool

Walking barefoot through Desert Hot Springs sand
Three women left the dream behind
